Nike terminates Spartak Moscow partnership
Nike has ended its sponsorship deal with Russian Premier League club Spartak Moscow. The decision comes following the club’s exclusion from European competitions next season after UEFA announced that Russian teams won’t be allowed to participate in major UEFA tournaments for the upcoming 2022-23 season due to the country’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine.
Nike, which served as Spartak Moscow’s shirt supplier since 2005, will no longer continue its role with the club. The Russian club have announced that they have started looking for new partners.
